Chapter 291: Chapter 291: The Most Suitable to be the Xiao Family’s Daughter-in-law Chapter 291: Chapter 291: The Most Suitable to be the Xiao Family’s Daughter-in-law “Ah, why stop now? Keep going, you two, keep going. I haven’t taken enough pictures yet.” Xiao Lingyun’s hand rested on Mo Shishi’s shoulder as she flashed a mischievous smile towards Xiao Jinghan.

Xiao Jinghan’s handsome brows furrowed slightly, and his deep eyes filled with displeasure as he gave Xiao Lingyun a cold glance, “What is it?”

Xiao Lingyun didn’t speak, just the corner of her mouth twitched, signaling Xiao Jinghan to look at Mo Shishi.

Xiao Jinghan ignored Mo Shishi and tried to take Ye Weiwei’s hand instead.

Ye Weiwei’s face turned crimson red, and she flung the man’s hand away, took a deep breath to steady herself, and said, “Xixi needs me.”

With that, she turned and bolted out of the ward like a runaway little rabbit.

The ward became quiet with Ye Weiwei’s departure.

No one dared to speak first.

To be precise, neither Xiao Lingyun nor Lu Zi’an dared to provoke Xiao Jinghan first.

They had just disrupted a good deed being done by someone else… Damn it!

Finally, it was an unwilling Mo Shishi who broke the silence, “Jinghan, I came to talk to you about something.”

Xiao Jinghan lifted his eyelids, his voice sharp as he said, “Speak!”

“Lingyun’s birthday, Aunt said that she wants me to take charge. I don’t know what would be appropriate to do, so I thought I’d ask for Jinghan’s help,” Mo Shishi mustered her courage, reciting the script taught to her by Qiu Ying.

Xiao Jinghan’s icy gaze grew darker, and his thin lips tightened into a straight line.

Qiu Ying had let Mo Shishi take charge of Xiao Lingyun’s birthday banquet, the intention couldn’t be clearer.

The elders must have taken a liking to Mo Shishi and wanted her as his wife. This was a heads-up to him.

If they had settled on Mo Shishi, then things would become much more troublesome for him and Ye Weiwei.

“Jinghan, what do you think I should do? Should I keep it traditional, or turn it into the kind of party that we young people like?” Mo Shishi suggested while inching closer to Xiao Jinghan.

Xiao Lingyun, who had been bending her head in thought, suddenly exclaimed in shock, “Why the hell should Mo Shishi be deciding on my birthday? Mom and dad are really stirring things up! Jinghan, Shishi, wait here, I’m going to make a phone call!”

With that, Xiao Lingyun clutched her cell phone and dashed out of the ward, finding a relatively safe corner to dial Xiao Tingshen’s number.

Xiao Tingshen was waiting for his daughter’s call, and the smile that spread across his lips had a hint of chill when he saw she was calling him.

“Dear daddy… how could you let Mo Shishi be in charge of my birthday banquet!” Xiao Lingyun began to act cutely.

But the other person didn’t fall for her act, replying coldly, “Straighten your tongue and talk properly.”

Xiao Lingyun blinked and, after a second of stunned silence, said, “Dad, you’re being so harsh on me, it’s a bit strange. Are you saying you don’t love your daughter anymore? I’ve been slaving away for our family, for my brother, working tirelessly until death… *sobs*…”

“Hmph! Better you hadn’t mentioned it, but now that you did, I’m reminded of more things. Xiao Lingyun, starting today, don’t even think about getting a penny from me!” Xiao Tingshen said angrily.

Xiao Lingyun looked bewildered, “Daddy, why? Am I not obedient enough, not pretty enough, don’t I care enough about my brother? Why won’t you give me money!”

Money was her lifeline, it’s what she loved most.

“Hmph, care about your brother? No need. We have decided that your brother will marry Mo Shishi. She doesn’t despise your brother, and is gentle and well-behaved, the perfect Xiao Family’s daughter-in-law!”
